Excellent Jeff and Dr. Horne. Witnessed miracles make me cry.
One of the gems
I’m a long time listener. I so appreciate this show, I can’t possibly say with words. So many great guests and topics that need more attention. On it best interview style podcasts I’ve ever found. Thank you!
Explains capitalism’s drawbacks.
This show brings on various economists, journalists, scientists and other professionals. Regardless of the issue, this show sheds light on how rampant/unregulated neoliberal capitalism can be tied to many of the disparities experienced by anyone who isn’t benefiting from intergenerational wealth or benefiting off the backs of exploited workers. Whether you lean right or left, this podcast will give a much needed perspective.
